Drive on if you dare: The park now has more than 20 lions after a new litter was born earlier this year
"Anyone got a can opener?"

“You can’t hide your lion eyes”...
Yikes, I’ve been in a car surrounded by Zebras and having them bump up against the car, but the most I knew they would do is kick a hole in the car... LOL...
But, there was one time that I was just about to leave a “Safari park” in my car and I spotted an ostrich running up from behind the car, in order to “catch me” (in the car). I knew that ostrich was trouble because they are known to kick your car, so I sped out of there in no time flat (I was only about 50 yards from the exit gate with that ostrich headed right for me and the car... :-)
"No chezberger, but we kan has Ford Eskort!"
Magnificant animals.
This brings to mind the video circulating the internet a few years ago showing a tourist (and father) who got out of his car to film the lions while his wife and children watched from inside the car. The lions ambushed him...and another tourist kept the camera rolling. Horrific.
I saw a show a couple of months ago, I think it was on Animal Planet, where these two guys rode out a lion pride feeding frenzy, while sitting in a plexi glass container placed in the middle of the frenzy. Those fellow’s eyes got pretty wide when the lions started biting the container, looking for dessert...
“It’s here gang, our first Meals on Wheels”.
I hope the people in the car had a camera. I would have filled up the memory card on mine with still photos and videos.
This was routine here in beautiful Loxahatchee, Florida at our famous “Lion Country Safari”.
Then, leftist morons had to open their DOORS and WINDOWS while crossing the Lion’s “Den”, and had to ruin it for everybody.
The Lions are now CAGED in their own grass area. Terrible.
Oh boy for a prankster to have secreted some pieces of raw meat under the bumpers the night before.
Nice Kitty, Kitty — here, wnna bite of my hot dog?
Don’t bother with this thread. There are more pictures of escorts in the yellow pages...

Baby season has definitely started here at Knowsley, so far we have;
A Lechwe calf born 28th March

7 Pere David's calves
16 Ostrich eggs
And the multiple baboon babies already running around and eyeing up their first wiper blades.
As well as the new babies in the main reserve we also have our lion cubs, three rhino calves and in the lake farm some piglets and lambs.
There has never been a better time to visit Knowsley Safari Park than right now!
Ping to Post #23....that’s the picture I was telling you about last week. LOL
Good thing they weren’t driving a 2000 Algore. Once you stop, the engine ceases and the sun roof opens automatically to allow solar recharging of the interior.
